#FRIFOTOS Friday Photos Forum – Recap Friday, 12 November 2010

Tweet
Playful, innocent, full of wonder and curiosity – Tweeters last week used these words to describe Childhood, the subject for last Friday’s #FRIFOTOS, and it’s no surprise these same qualities were delightfully reflected in the submitted photos. These #FRIFOTOS images of childhood, past and present, were a joy to look at, and are guaranteed to brighten up anyone’s day.
There must be something profound and elemental about the connection between childhood fun and the beach or pool, as this was favorite theme. @MO_Hotels gave us an elegantly beautiful image of two …

#FRIFOTOS Friday Photos Forum – Recap Friday, 5 November 2010

Tweet
It’s @bestlovedhotels here again and It has really been exciting writing the #FRIFOTOS Recaps and helping @epsteintravels get this innovative social-media activity off the ground.  I hope you are enjoying #FRIFOTOS as much I am and will share it with your friends and colleagues.
This week’s #FRIFOTOS theme was ”Where would I rather be…” and for me this proved rather difficult as I was quite happy being at the TBEX Europe (Travel Bloggers Exhibition) in Copenhagen where I met some amazing travel bloggers, writers, social-media exponents and great friends.  So instead …

Author: Jeffrey Epstein @bestlovedhotels
This week’s #Frifotos theme was ‘Nice View’ and the Twitterverse did not disappoint. From the many images uploaded it probably would have been better if we had decided to make this week’s theme ‘Fantastic’, ‘Awesome’ or ‘Stunning’ Views. We extend a big thank you to everyone who posted an image or commented on images. It was fun seeing the wide range of pictures covering virtually every continent.
It was very also impressive to see the range of contributors taking part in #Frifotos which included fantastic international luxury hotel …

What ensues is an entertaining and robust conversation as more and more pictures are uploaded and viewed.
#FriFotos was inspired by Jonathan Epstein, the CEO of Celebrated Experiences, the luxury travel company specializing in travel …
